Coos Bay. commission chairman, snld Thursday. Chandler, reporting to the Legis lature's Interim Committee on Hlchwavs. said the bond Issue would provide money to complete the Portland-Salem freeway, and to reconstruct and widen many sections of the Pacific Highway. The 1951 Legislature authorized 40 millions in bonds. Chandler said that with the S3 million bond issue, the commis sion's critical 150 million dollar de ficiency ln highway needs would be cut to 60 millions. This 80 million dollar deficiency can then be cut much further by normal highway income. Chandler also said these projects would be made possible by the proposed new bond issue: Furtner construction of the water level route from Portland to Pen dleton, Improvement of the Oregon Coast Highway, some work on the Old Oregon Trail east of Pendle ton, and reconstruction ot portions of The Dalles-California Highway, route 20 from Bend to the Idaho line, and some other routes.
